Wow Thanks guys...its running the stock prop, the boat came out of California. Are the numbers on the prop where I can see them? 996Scott sounds like the 1433 prop should work for me. So I think I have a good Idea where to start.

I would agree with your order, but depending on what lakes you are going to the prop may move up to number 2 on my list. It makes a huge difference at higher altitudes. Looks like You, 996Scott and I need to plan a Moomba get together, more like a Mobius get together!

I'm wary of people saying they run the "stock prop" as dealers order them with different props, some even based on their location or elevation. It's best to examine the prop yourself and write down every number you can see. Take a look at this page, zoom in on the propeller and you can see a model number along with size and pitch info stamped in the center right around the shaft.

Research which one you have or post the info here and ask advice. Depending on how much weight you are going to run you might not need to pitch down as much as some are suggesting, especially if you are going to be doing a lot of tubing or any skiing at all. On the other hand, elevation makes a big difference. You probably couldn't run what I run-- the ACME 1161-- where you are.

Sounds good to me sivs1!!!

here is the numbers on the stock prop 13.7 x 17.5... also took a pic of the dash w no depth gauge.

1- ordered a Hawkeye depth gauge (if anyone can post a pic of a good mounting location of the Thru-Hull Transducer would help)
